Maybe 9/11 Made Him Do It?

posted by on November 28 at 13:50 PM

Via The Politico:

As New York mayor, Rudy Giuliani billed obscure city agencies for tens of thousands of dollars in security expenses amassed during the time when he was beginning an extramarital relationship with future wife Judith Nathan in the Hamptons, according to previously undisclosed government records.

The documents, obtained by Politico under New York’s Freedom of Information Law, show that the mayoral costs had nothing to do with the functions of the little-known city offices that defrayed his tabs, including agencies responsible for regulating loft apartments, aiding the disabled and providing lawyers for indigent defendants.

At the time, the mayor’s office refused to explain the accounting to city auditors, citing “security.”

Joan Walsh's column in Salon a couple days ago nailed it: He's the perfect Catholic Daddy, "Do as I say, not as I do".

I don't. I'd like to see the Rs nominate someone I could maybe vote for in case the Dems nominate Hillary.

okay, maybe off topic, but has the SLOG posted anything about the drunken Apple Cup (whatever the hell that is) fan who attacked the Sikh cab driver (speaking of mislead payback for 9/11)? I want him to suffer long and HARD. Fucker.
